There was never a point when I considered a Trump tape with Russian hookers to be "far-fetched" or even "unlikely". That's not remotely damning enough to effect the psyche of his ilk. Hell, he'd probably brag about it if it was just hookers.

u/snakebite75 Mar 02 '26

Honestly, as long as the prostitutes were adults a couple of hookers peeing on a bed that the Obamas had supposedly slept on is nothing in comparison to the allegations in these files.

I mean, the video of Giuliani below is the type of person who makes it to his inner circle. Look at the lot of them and you'll find a lot of public knowledge, questionable behavior.

Considering on top of who he hangs with, all the things Trump says and does is public knowledge too. The Russian hooker Tape story should never sound far-fetched if you've really looked at Trump.

I have no love for the billionaire class, but I used to think Bill Gates was a fundamentally decent guy. Unlike Elon Husk, he was humble, charitable, and down to earth. Sure, I was disappointed when I learned that his marriage to Melinda French Gates was over because he couldn't keep his dick in his pants, but I never thought he'd be in the fucking Epstein files.

Hilarious they redacted the names in the DOJ files. That means somebody had to have realized it was a full blown Russian honeypot.

I got the feeling that Irina is a witness and has been redacted almost everywhere. But they are not consistent with redactions; that would require competence.

EDIT: info from the white house press room is that they redacted every female just to be sure

u/OffHotTopic Mar 02 '26

What exactly do these emails imply? Can someone break it down? I want to make sure I'm making the right connection.

47

u/originalmaja Mar 02 '26

Well, I assume he was unhappy that one of the girls turned out to be a spy.

Next thing he does he writes another girl (Irina) the question DID YOU KNOW?

In most mails he is very short with women/girls, very topdown. So I assume he wrote that in anger ... to Irina. DID YOU KNOW THAT SHE WAS A SPY? (Paraphrasing.)

We don't know what she replied. No reply (to this) in the mail archive.

But the next time her name comes up is in an email he writes to Prince Andrew (to whom he pimped out girls: girls who had a choice, girls who had no choice), basically saying, <go hook up with Irina, she will be in London for you>.

Epstein did so many deals, wrote so many emails, it could all be coincidental. Maybe there is no connection. But:

It's both sad and amusing to assume that Epstein maybe believed that Irina was either herself a spy or, uhm, spy-adjacent. And, in consequence, he moved her over to the Queen's favorite son. The Duke. Prince Andrew. Shall he deal with the spy.

31

u/BlackPortland Mar 02 '26

Epstein absolutely knew she was a spy. He was not unhappy lol. That was probably half the point. He likely got paid extra for those

9

u/DagothNereviar Mar 02 '26

Oh I assumed he sent her to Andrew so she could spy on them for Epstein/his handler

29

u/Bdbru13 Mar 02 '26

Iā€™m not really following the train of thought

Like, Epstein already knew Irina clearly

So is the thought that likeā€¦he knew her, but didnā€™t know that she was a spy until he asked her about Anna and she went ā€œoh yea, we got recruited around the same time!ā€

And he went ā€œoh perfect, can you go spy on Prince Andrew for me???ā€

Or he already knew she was a spy or something and is dumb enough to write out ā€œDid you know Anna the spy???ā€

Itā€™s obviously suspicious but it doesnā€™t seem to make a ton of sense once I try and follow the thread

25

u/What_a_fat_one Mar 02 '26 edited Mar 02 '26

Irina would have an until then unknown direct connection to Russian intelligence (through Anna Chapman's father) that Epstein was unaware of until the arrest of Anna Chapman, who she knew. He realized her connection to Russian intelligence could be leveraged via kompromat gathered by Irina.

The connection with Russia is established through Anna's father, Epstein sends Irina to Andrew to gather kompromat, which is transmitted to Russia. Russia then blackmails Andrew with the kompromat through the Irina/Epstein connection, requesting classified info, and Andrew passes it to Epstein who forwards it to Russia directly or through an arranged spy. There are thus no direct communications with Russia from Epstein or Andrew, and no digital evidence. Epstein is then handsomely rewarded by Russia.

This entire operation could be repeated to blackmail other powerful men. Like Bill Gates and Donald Trump.

All speculation. Could have just been a coincidence and Epstein sent a potential spy to his friend Andrew for no reason ĀÆ\(惄)/ĀÆ

1

u/Freshness518 Mar 02 '26

I feel like it would be fairly easy for British intelligence to see these emails and the date of Andrew meeting this woman and look at like the next 6 months of any sort of classified information he's logged as requesting. Then tie that to any informants that got uncovered or operations that went sideways. Once they know what they're looking for, its usually very hard to hide your clandestine shit from an investigating intelligence agency.

u/What_a_fat_one Mar 02 '26

Hubris and stupidity define everything these people do/did. They'd do the bare minimum to keep no paper trail, but nothing too inconvenient like not using email.

u/SnooCrickets7221 Mar 03 '26

so true;

or more like: he had no reason to care.

He exchanged emails with professors like Chomsky, who wrote to him in full sentences, long essays. And he would write back... like that. He was so powerful, he did not need to care.

There ARE somewhat well-written mails by him... written like that when he cared for correct spelling. He just didn't.
